“Younger brother?” Shen Yin looked at the two of them in disbelief.
Cheng Huo smiled and pushed her sister’s head away. “This is my older sister, Cheng Luo.”
Realizing that she had made a big mistake, Shen Yin blushed and sat down awkwardly.
When Cheng Luo saw that her younger brother could not bear tear his gaze away from the girl, she knew what he was thinking. She smiled and teased, “How fortunate that I’m here today. Otherwise, she would ignore you in the future. She would only have one meal with you.”
Shen Yin’s ears turned pink from her words. Cheng Huo found this interesting and his heart skipped a beat. He suddenly turned to look at Cheng Luo. “Sister, didn’t you say that you had something on tonight and can’t attend the gala?”
Cheng Luo raised her eyebrows. “You have an idea?”
Cheng Huo boldly looked straight at Shen Yin’s blushing face. “Since I don’t have a date, why not let Shen Yin go with me?”
Cheng Luo did not say anything. She just looked at Shen Yin inquisitively, as if waiting for her response.
Shen Yin shook her head gently. “Sorry, I don’t want to go.”
Cheng Huo was not discouraged. He took out his phone and placed it on the table. He advised gently, “Have you forgotten what you said about repaying me? It doesn’t matter if you have forgotten. The surveillance footage on my phone is very clear. It might jog your memory.”
Shen Yin’s eyes suddenly widened. She had not expected this man to keep such evidence. Although she had just given Yun Shan a taste of her own medicine at the birthday banquet, it was still a dishonorable thing to have done.
She bit her lower lip and looked sternly at him as she negotiated. “I can go with you, but you have to promise that you’ll delete this video after today.”
“I promise.” Cheng Huo smiled proudly. Then, he saw Shen Yin wave her cell phone. On the screen was a recording she had just made.
The smug smile froze on his face. After a while, he shook his head helplessly. “You don’t have to be so wary of me. Don’t worry, I’ll keep my word.”
After the meal, Shen Yin and Cheng Huo agreed that he would pick her up after work.
As she walked back to the police station, she realized that she had forgotten to ask him what kind of gala she would be attending.
She sighed and waited anxiously until it was time to get off work. She saw a Lamborghini waiting for her downstairs on time.
Shen Yin got into the car in silence. She suddenly thought of Lian Jing, who was always waiting obediently at the junction, and felt a little guilty.
She hurriedly shook her head and pushed away the thought of the man that kept appearing in her mind.
She was no one to him. It was none of his business whose car she was in or who she went out with!
Cheng Huo had been staring at her. When he saw her distressed look, he could not help but ask, “What are you thinking about?”
Shen Yin fastened her seatbelt and said calmly, “I was wondering if you would betray me.”
Cheng Huo was amused by her deadpan manner. He reached out and stroked her hair before driving off in satisfaction. “Don’t worry, I can’t bear to betray you. I want to marry you.”
Shen Yin froze on the spot and looked at him in disbelief. “What did you just say?”
“I won’t repeat myself.” Cheng Huo looked straight ahead as he drove, but the corners of his mouth curled up. He casually pointed at the bag in the backseat. “Find a place to change your clothes later. If you go in like that, your outfit will attract too much attention.”
Shen Yin glared at him. Seeing that he as not looking at her at all, she could only resentfully look away and watch as the car stopped in front of a magnificent villa.
Cheng Huo got out of the car and considerately opened the door for Shen Yin. Then, he took out the bag from the backseat and threw it into her arms. “Go change.”
Shen Yin looked left and right. Other than a large and carefully trimmed garden outside the villa, there was nowhere suitable for changing.
Cheng Huo placed his head on her shoulder from behind and asked her with a smile, “Why don’t I shield you while you change inside?”
Shen Yin turned her head to avoid his touch and glared at him while still smiling. “There’s no place to change here, and my clothes aren’t suitable. I had better not go in.”
“That won’t do.” Cheng Huo put his arm around her shoulders and pushed her into the villa. The bodyguards at the door bowed when they saw him, but he ignored them and led her to the washroom.
She did not know where to change?! He was deliberately teasing her!
Shen Yin angrily carried the clothes into the cubicle. When she took out the clothes out of the bag, she was stunned.
This dress was even more gorgeous than she had imagined. There were gemstones and pearls sewn on with gold thread. Every movement she made set off ripples of glitter.
At the bottom of the bag were shoes with ten centimeters high heels. The luxurious material was comfortable and did not hurt her feet. They fit her feet exactly.
However, her dress was too revealing, and her entire back was exposed. The hem of her dress barely skimmed her butt, making her feel a little lost.
But Cheng Huo was blackmailing her, so Shen Yin braced herself and walk out. Her legs were cold, and she walked hesitantly towards the bathroom door, but she did not dare to take another step forward.
